Magnesium Glycinate Complex - L-Theanine, Passionflower & Valerian Root for Sleep Support, Nerve & Muscle Health, High Absorption - 90 Vegetarian Capsules

Sorry in advance if this is too long or anecdotal.For background, I take quite a few nutritional supplements. And, given that I had recently fallen onto an article that indicated that as many as 80% of Americans are deficient in magnesium and the many ways this can have a deleterious impact on our health and well being, it was in the back of my mind to research which supplement to get. Then, I found that Dr. Olivia Naturals was now selling a magnesium supplement. I research my supplements relatively thoroughly. I use Dr. Olivia Naturals Turmeric and, based on my experiences with that have come to trust the brand as one of that uses quality ingredients that blend together synergistically. For instance, the other supplement, Dr. Olivia Naturals Turmeric, not only has the enhancing bioperine, but another anti-inflamatory ingredient, boswellia,. And, I assume as their secret weapon to help some who suffer the digestive upset that can be caused by tumeric, they include ginger. Let me say that in my house, ginger has been a go to for things like motion sickness and nausea for decades, actually back to my childhood.Before I digress too much, I was very happy to find that Dr. Olivia Naturals now had a magnesium supplement, but I wanted to research the ingredients nonetheless. Turns out that the type used in the Dr. Olivia Naturals is the one best suited to my personal needs. If I understand, the commonly used magnesium oxide has a laxative characteristic, whereas magnesium glycinate is not only more bioavailable to us folk, but has a bunch of benefits, including what I was after, a good mood enhancer. Their formula includes passion flower, which is felt to have a calming impact, valerian root, which a knew of previously as a sleep aid, but I've now read can lead to feelings of being relaxed, and, finally, L-Theanine, which my wife, an avid nutritional supplement person, spoke very positively about, which promotes feelings of relaxation and a positive mood. Her major concern was that I might fall asleep while driving or something.Every once in a while, I get in a funk, which causes me to act irritably to those around me and is set off by something emotional. Usually, it lasts for about three days and I hate, hate, hate when this happens. Luckily, it only occurs infrequently. But here it was. I really try not to be, but I'm just unpleasant during this time and everyone close to me knows it's probably best to give me my space. Well, the onset had begun the night before and I, as usual, felt guilty about the way I was acting, but it was still there. The next day, one of my daughters and I had both been pretty busy with our activities and it was already afternoon with neither of us having really had anything to eat. She said, "Hey, Dad, let's go get some food." During this moody phase I sometimes go through, my doing something like this is something I avoid. But, I agreed. During the meal, I took a couple of Dr. Olivia Naturals magnesium for the first time and a couple hours later, it was very evident to me and those around my that my mood was good. No feeling of drowsiness, but I described to them that I felt giddy. The only supplement where I've noticed an immediate reaction in the past was my good old friend Rhodiola which I use for energy prior to a heavy workout, but this felt pretty dang good. As a matter of fact, my daughter (she's 23) asked for a capsule herself. And, the following day, she had me order a bottle for her. I've now had it for a few days and my funk never returned. Do I know for a fact that it was this supplement, no. Do I believe this supplement helped, absolutely. So, thanks Dr. Olivia!!!Anyway, magnesium has many benefits beyond mood. If you're interested, I enthusiastically suggest you do a google search. You might be surprised like I was.Sorry again for being long winded.

I have been taking these for over a year. Seems to be a great product for my family even my husband and adult daughter will take them occasionally to help fall asleep. Helps me personally relax and get to sleep.They were out of stock completely for a few months or so Amazon and Dr. Olivia’s website of this particular product. I have personally found for my body that the new restocking product seems to be definitely a different formulation even though the bottle says the same Ingredients as before. however the capsules are definitely larger than before. Perhaps some kind of filler was added? I don’t know. But in my estimation it is a changed formulation because it now gives that feeling in your stomach you know the urgency that says get to the bathroom now or else LOL. The original run of the product that I was taking for over a year didn’t ever never experience that and for me personally my dosage has never change I only take two at night before bed. I am still taking it I just plan accordingly in the morning.:) The products seem to have a better synergistic blend of ingredients that I cannot find with other products and I’ve been searching for something similar to her blends and I have not as yet found any products with all the same quality of ingredient and blends as she has. however I will continue to search as her new prices on all the new products That Dr. Olivia has formulated are high-priced so I hope that we get continually what we pay for.

I don't even know where to start but let me try. I had been diagnosed with arthritis in my back. It has progressed over the years and I just can feel that my body is full of inflammation. I hurt all over. After also suffering from insomnia, well, I was a hot mess! I ordered Excedrin PM to help with the pain and insomnia and after searching on Amazon, I found this product. I decided to cancel my order for the Excedrin and try this product, especially after reading the reviews. So here I am at 6 a.m. after taking 2 capsules before bed and I'm fully rested WITH NO PAIN!!!!! I am thrilled beyond belief!!! I am 65 yrs. old and can't wait for my granddaughter to wake up so I can play with her instead of just spending time baking cookies with her. Dr. Olivia, I am dealing with so many health related issues in my family that I know I can finally help all of them with this miracle supplement!! From spinal cord injury and the associated pain and depression it causes, to Lyme disease, to dystonia and sports injuries, I am confident this can help. I will definetly give updates on family members who benefit from this. I simply cannot thank you enough!!!!!! DO NOT hesitate to buy this. You will be happy you did!!

I had to quit a job I loved because insomnia and sleep deprivation were ruining my health. I first tried prescription medication but don't like to use meds long term. I always try to find healthier alternatives. Through trial and error, over a three year period, I finally found a supplement that helped me fall asleep and stay asleep, without making me feel groggy: Dr. Olivia Naturals Stress and Sleep Support. It's a perfect blend. I do a lot of research on the supplements, foods and drugs I put into my body, and Dr. Olivia Naturals do the job, and are gentle on your system. I only wish she would expand her product line. Her products are pure and are blended to get the biggest benefit for your money.

I loved that this product basically knocked me out. I had really vivid and crazy dreams but, if anything it made me want to keep sleeping. The problem was after a few nights I noticed I was having small seizures and then one day I almost had a grand mal seizure. I’m not sure why as all of the ingredients are supposed to suppress seizures. I think maybe they have other ingredients not listed. Just be careful.
